Don't edit yourself until you're completely finished for the session.

It is much easier to fit things together when you let it flow naturally to start.

Don't worry about rhyme. I write my lyrics vague enough that someone could apply their own meaning, but if I told you what it was about then there'd be no question. I just write them as if I were writing a novel. When it comes time to record, I trim the lyrics down and get rid of any "fat" and make sure the vocals flow while still making sense. I avoid rhyming at all costs unless I think it truly works in that specific context.

Write your thoughts and feelings out in prose. Work on them until they say exactly what you want. Then try rephrasing them in rhyme while keeping as much of the original feeling as possible.
